I have the original sidewinder forcefeeback wheel,non usb
type,just wondering if there is a patch for it since it
no longer seems to work properly because i upgraded from
win98 se to winxp pro,thanks in advance
 
you may not believe this but i rang M$ about my precision
2 joystick with a similar problem. "get a cold glass or
water and dip the USB socket into the water up to the
holes so to fill the innards with water" is what i was
told. This de-statics the device which "is a inherent
problem with all M$ game controllers". Be careful not to
rub it dry as this may re-static the device. Give it a
good shake and dont worry about drops of water. Mine
didnt blow up. Works fine but requires this method
repeating every now and again. Unfortunatly when the
problem starts its a pain forever.
